The Training_package environment is a help for customers as it provides several tests. These tests are meant to use a Nxmap NxPython function, instantiate a Nx component or show a design example.
...
For instance, it gives the ability to launch a test through nxpythonNxPython, open a test through nxmapImpulse, open logs, etc,…

Category, Test and Argument names.
Compliant variants.
Description and Results.
Nxmap NxPython function and Nx components.

The only available parameters to configure are the following:
NXMAPNXDESIGNSUITE_PATH=[path to nxpython and nxmap3 impulse bin directory]
NXDESIGNSUITE_MODEL_PATH=[path to modelsim/backannoted NX libraries directory]
NXBASE2_PATH=[path to nxbase2_cli directory]
TEXT_EDITOR_CMD=[text editor command to open a text file]
TABLE_EDITOR_CMD=[table editor command to open a csv file]
...
Then each test directory gets the following files and directories:
nxmapnxpython_script.py: script to launch by
nxpython nxmapnxpython_script.py <options>
project_variables.py: all variables used for the test are defined.
src: all needed RTL sources.
sub_scripts: all needed python files to create the project.
project_ios.py: defined banks voltages and pads configurations.
project_files.py: defined RTL files.
project_parameters.py: defined top generic parameters.
project_options.py: defined Nxmap NxPython options.
project_constraints.py: defined constraints for synthesis or P&R.
project_class.py: chip class.
script.py: main script.
[top_cell]_[variant](_[options]): created project once launched.
LogsPython: all logs and reports.
*.nym: nxmap nxpython project files.
*.vhd/*.v: netlists.
*.sdf: Backannoted SDF files.
Bitstream.nxb: bitstream binary file.
